Fig. 2From: Lahar characteristics as a function of triggering mechanism at a seasonally snow-clad volcano: contrasting lahars following the 2014 phreatic eruption of Ontake Volcano, Japana Timelines of the eruption and lahars with temporal variations in the daily rainfall, daily rate of snowmelt, and snow depth at Tanohara (2190 m a.s.l.: Fig. 1a). The October 2014 lahar was caused by the second rainstorm event after the eruption, whereas the April ROS-induced lahar occurred due to the most intensive water supply which was ~ 400 mm at the end of the snowmelt season. b Hourly rainfall intensity at Tanohara on October 5–6, 2014 (left), and hourly rainfall + snowmelt intensity on April 20–21, 2015 (right). c Daily water input and snow depth at Tanohara from September 27, 2014, to September 25, 2016 (24 months)Back to article page
